LOL, this is the era I was farming in... 78 we switched from a 915 to New Holland for the twin rotors, seed business, made all the difference... We ran a TR70 then a TR85 but back to IH in 80,,, Dealer support... I farmed through to a 2588... Simple amazing machines!!!
The only thing they don't want to admit is, the CASEIH could not combine wheat or small grains with weeds in the field. The conventional style of the deere could handle the weeds and work through those fields without plugging. Secondly, the deere can be set to clean the grain better than the CASEIH and throw less out the back of the machine. I should know because I ran a lot of 9600 combines from 92-97. The 9000 series had suspension seats comparable to the John Deere 8000 series tractors. The real truth is, neither combine had a major advantage over the other no matter what they say
Good point, however the gleaner r series takes the cake for chewing through weeds. IH for clean grain. Gleaner for organic/high weed content. John deere for parking in a hedgerow with a motor full of water.
You are so wrong we run iH since 1982 on the wheat run and over the years I have had countless number of johndeere guy tell me how they just can't get there depressed to do has good of job has our rotory are doing i have had more than one deere cutter tell me they get it close and then just don't look in the grain tank or on the ground so I ask why do you stay with the john deer they all said the same thing because deer had a better finance program that was the only reason they run john deer it had nothing to do with the jobs it did because they knew iH was better it because johndeere made it easier to buy them.
@@snowman5609 like I said at the end of my comments, no manufacturer had an advantage over the other until John Deere came out with the X9 1100. The AF11 was the first time CASEIH had a major advantage over John Deere. You may think otherwise, but unless you know the facts, your bias is just one sided

I had this tape as a kid!
As soon as the sun set the Axial flow shut down......the 9600 soldiered on late into the night.
Quite a few of these guys were in the Waverly, Iowa area. Customers of Smith International, INC.
I bought a 1480 from there in 2005. Great guys, loved the 1480

The Gleaner R70 would kill both.
This is a John Deere vs caseIH combine not gleaner
